Coffee: the New Health Beverage


Hallelujah! Today’s NY Times has a story that continues a wave of reports that coffee is better for you than you think. A study in the most recent Journal of the American Medical Association found that women who drink more than three cups of java daily are 7 to 12 percent less likely to develop high blood pressure than those who don’t drink coffee. Another recent report found that coffee was the major food source for antioxidants for the average adult, and still another found that heavy coffee consumption was linked with reduced risk of diabetes. Maybe we can start using those Medical Savings Accounts to fund our Starbuck’s runs? Drink up!
